Understanding Investment Returns
This calculator helps you understand how your investment might grow over time. Key points include:
- Future value is calculated using the compound interest formula: FV = IV * (1 + r)^t, where FV is the future value, IV is the initial investment, r is the annual return rate (as a decimal), and t is the duration in years.
- Total return is the future value minus the initial investment.
These calculations assume a fixed annual return rate and no additional contributions or withdrawals unless specified.
FAQs
What if I make additional contributions?
This calculator assumes a one-time initial investment. Additional contributions would increase the future value beyond what is calculated here.
Does this account for taxes or fees?
No, taxes or fees are not included. Deduct them from the future value if you want to account for them.
How accurate are these return projections?
These projections are based on a fixed return rate, which may not reflect real-world market fluctuations. Use this as an estimate and consult a financial advisor for detailed planning.
Does the currency selection affect the calculation?
No, the currency selection is for display purposes only. The calculation remains the same regardless of the currency chosen.
